Product Description
Description
George Findlay and his news team return in Escape from the Newsroom. Written, created and directed by Ken Finkleman, the feature comedy is the sequel to his groundbreaking series, The Newsroom.
When it comes to satire, no show in TV history delivered more dark wit than Finkleman's series The Newsroom. Carrying on the tradition five years later, Escape from the Newsroom targets popular culture, the Canadian film industry, TV journalism, office politics and artistic freedom.
The film reunites members of the original cast and introduces new characters into the already volatile mix. Ken Finkleman once again portrays George, the neurotic hypochondriac and politically incorrect news director. And Peter Keleghan reprises the role of anchor Jim Walcott, who has emerged from his coma to make a triumphant return to the anchor desk, despite the bullet still lodged in his brain.
The cast also features Jeremy Hotz, Karen Hines, David Huband, Leah Pinsent, Christian Potenza, Reagan Pasternak and John Neville.

excellent capper to series,
By
This review is from: Newsroom: Escape From The Newsroom (DVD)
Escape from the Newsroom is a great capper to the three-season series. As expected, it's very entertaining, with various references to previous storylines, and in addition to season regulars, also includes cameos by Canadian film industry's Atom Egoyan and Robert Lantos (starring as themselves). Unfortunately, the dvd is bare bones - unlike the rest of the series, there are no additional features at all.
